Macroeconomic Effects of Carbon Dioxide Emission Reduction:Cost and Benefits
نویسندگان
چکیده
Global climate change is hitherto the most serious environmental problem, and China’s CO2 emissions reductions have been one of the hottest problems discussed in the world. This paper quantifies the impacts of different abatement policies on economy based on a modified MACRO model. The empirical results show that CO2 direct emissions control with the most serious GDP loss is the most effective strategies in term of mitigating CO2 emissions, and carbon tax on coal with great effects and less economic loss is the most suitable strategy for China.
